Didn't God do some hijinks with the temple of Babylon? Like, totally eviserate it because the people building it wanted to get closer to God and speak with him and learn the secrets of the Heavens?

Or is that, like, totally wrong?
close, but no cigar. You're talking about the tower of Babel (babel=babylon). According to the bible, the people there wanted to build a tower to declare war on god. So he caused them all to speak different languages which caused them all manner of problems. The tower-building ended when they all declared war on each other.
